I have a temporary resin shortage! It is due to supply chain logistics and the amazing French work culture. I have been using the best quality resin I can find, Sika Axon F38.
It is great to work with at a viscosity of 35 mPas! Unfortunately it is produced in small quantities, as it has a shorter shelf life and is expensive. So occasionally there are issues with supply.
This time around, the UK company I bought from (it is NOT MBFG as shown on the jugs, I fill these ones from larger containers. MBFG are also out of stock on the F38) received a shipment that was two of the same resin part, not the A and B parts that make the resin. These suppliers are based in France. In France they have a great work culture where many companies close over August so they are now closed.
End result is that I have no resin. My supplier said they will send me 10kg they have in stock, so I can get casting again when that arrives. That might see me through the next couple of weeks until the suppliers are open again in early September.
I apologise for any delays. If anyone else knows a decent 2 minute potlife polyurethane that has a viscosity of 35 mPas or less then please hit me up!
